Replace both batteries with new ones. Notes ● Use only AA, R6, UM-3 batteries for replacement. ● Be sure polarities are correct. (See illustration inside battery compartment.) ● Remove batteries if remote control transmitter will not be used for an extended period of time. ● If batteries leak, dispose of them immediately. Avoid touching the leaked material or letting it come in contact with clothing, etc. Clean the battery compartment thoroughly before installing new batteries. 30° 30° Notes ● There should be no large obstacles between the remote control transmitter and the main unit. ● If the remote control sensor is directly illuminated by strong lighting (especially an inverter type of fluorescent lamp etc.), it might cause the remote control transmitter to not work correctly. In this case, reposition the main unit to avoid direct lighting. HANDLING COMPACT DISCS • To remove a disc from its storage case, open the case and then press down at the center; with a finger through the center hole and the outer edges held as shown in the illustration, lift the disc out carefully. • Discs are not affected by small particles of dust or fingerprints on their playing surface, but even so they should be kept clean. Wipe by using a clean, dry cloth. Do not wipe with a circular motion; wipe straight outward from the center. ,,, , , • • Always handle the disc with care so that its surface is not scratched. Discs are not subjected to wear during play, but disc surface damage when the disc is being handled can adversely affect the disc’s play. • Do not try to clean the disc’s surface by using any type of disc cleaner, record spray, anti-static spray or liquid, or any other chemical-based liquid, because such substances might irreparably damage the disc’s surface. • Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperature or high humidity for a long period of time, because these might warp or otherwise damage the disc. No! To play a 8-cm (3-inch) CD Place it in the inner recessed area of the disc tray. Do not put a normal (12-cm/5-inch) CD on top of a 8-cm CD. 21  TROUBLESHOOTING If the unit fails to operate normally, check the following points to determine whether the fault can be corrected by the simple measures suggested.
